Little Talks by Beatrice Fairfax "Come on—bo a good sport—tike n chance," says Lucy. "But I really oughtn't to. I never work very well the next day if I've been up late at night," replies Helen. "You'll be a lone: time dead. Why don't you have a littlo fun while you are here?" insists Lucy. "1 oughtn't to—l haven't the right i.ind of clothes." "Oh, Helen, be game. I'll lend you a hat and the money for a new wnirt. We'll have a lot of fun and suppose you don't work so well to morrow ?" ' Mother wouldn't like me to go out with men I don't know, any way." "Now Mabel Hollins, they are rr>v friends! Arc you hinting I didn't' ineet them in the right way, or would go out with fellows that are not just what they ought to be. Don't come if you don't want to— but you needn't go hurting my feel ings about it." And Helen goes. If in the first place she hod said, "No, Luck, I can't," and had stuck to that simple statement, nil would have been well I'ut she flirted with temptation and; liie results are—a waist she could; no' afford to buy, a headache that interferes with an important day's work and gives the manager of her office his first doubts about her efficiency—both of these, and more, too. That one flirtation with tempta tion has given Helen a desire for more "good times" bought at the risk of health and efficiency: and n equally dangerous desire for ; the sort of clothes she cannot of-! ford and the society of people whoi may amuse themselves with her,' but she will never give her sincere,, helpful or loyal friendship. It is easier to conquer the first temptation than to deal with all thei others that grow out of it. It is! never particularly hard to say "No") to something which doesn't mean very much to you since you have never tried it. It is never very hard j to bend your energies in making up i your mind and keeping it made up: when you know that every possible j advantage lies in firmness. But it is| very, very hard to resist the lure of going on with a habit once you have, begun to form it. The first drink, the first misdeed, i the first extravagance, the first low- j ering of your own standards—actu-j ally it is harder to yield to these > temptations than to resist them. Cut fear of being laughed at and sheer l mental laziness keeu folks from the! tifrmness refusal requires. They yield, j not to any desire for the thing to i which they "sell out," but simply] and solely because "it is easier to I CROUP £* Spasmodic croup is usually relieved with one application of— /rMfir k5 a Lrttl* Body-Omtrd in Tor Homg^/y/' VKKSVAPORUBS |.

"Ah," I said playfully, paraphras : ing a sentimental verse: ,1 ! "'When you bought, it it never seemed That a frock could be so dear; When you bought, you little dreamed That a bill could rouse such fear!" "It's not a bill," she replied. "It's ! a fool note from a woman to whom I j was talking yesterday. She asks me ; ! to forgive her for being so horried to me. She says she has come to the 1 conclusion that I did not mean to be deliberately cruel in what I said to her." 1 . Here my poor friend smote her brow. "What did I say to her? And how was it cruel? As to her being horrid, I just regarded her as a cross cat with the toothache or something, and never gave the mat ter another thought." Then her indignation rose. "Fancy making such a tempest in a teapot!" she cried. "It was nothing in my life if she felt like scatching me. Her claws couldn't get through my armor of complete indifference." "She's evidently one of those tire some, sensitive plants," I said. "They go about victimizing the good-natur ed. You always have to hear of! some person's lack of consideration I and the cruel and inhuman treat ment someone else has accorded • them, and how they have been made i | ill because somebody blse has said i something else." "They put on such airs about it, too," she said. "They regard them selves as of finer clay than the coarse and crude beings with whom they are forced to associate. But, it does seem rather small to spend one's time mourning over trivial' slights, and neglects. Why should! one torment himself to-day because of the speech or action of someone who ten years from now may utter j ly have passed from his life." It is certainly a dangerous indul- I gence.

If you are sensi tive to pain you are equally sensi tive to joy. Sensitiveness does be speak fineness of grain. So why be sensitive to the harsh and un beautlful things? They can never reach or touch you when you are sensitive only to "whatsoever things are lovely."
